We are a Blessed People

How fun to be invited over to Teri's for a beautiful dinner. She makes everyone who walks through her door feel special and welcome. Whether you drop by for chili on a scary Halloween, greeted by a fire at her front door, or walk through her giant door sized wreath at Christmas time, or just wander into her backyard in the summer, to be greeted with an icy diet coke. She's there to welcome you with a smile and the KelKemp Hug!



Where could you find a more beautiful place to gather, but in her backyard? Wednesday night our Relief Society got together for a lovely dinner, to relax and enjoy one another's company. We had a great guest speaker, Ann Cannon, who writes for the Tribune and is also Lavelle Edwards daughter. She is very funny as she talked about life, the church, and sisterhood. Although the sisterhood part our sweet ladies don't need to learn much about. This ward is living example of caring for one another, learning from one another and just being there for each other. All ages from the kids to the grama's come together as sisters in this special place.

Of course Dale (Teri's husband) is always around to make sure that everything goes off according to plan..
and he's got a smile on his face while he's doing it!

These cuties are always there to lend a hand. When asked to do anything, Maren jumps up saying "That's why I'm here" and with a smile on her face and her pal Megan's, they do whatever. (And I'm not joking) They do it with a smile and a big hug for who ever is in their way.












Whether sisters by birth or sisters here on earth. It doesn't matter. The feeling is the same.









Beautiful women.....


Sister Eberling, one of the many I admire.





more beautiful sisters. Each has such an interesting story to tell. who do you think has a great sense of humor and always wears stylish clothes, who was a school teacher?a wartime bride?who is a missionary? and who has a posterity of over 150?





In our ward their is always music...and we love it!


Alot of us have lived here for over 30 years and never want to leave..The people that move in love it and want to live here for 30 years and never want to leave.
We are a blessed people.

I love to read Ann Cannon's column. It sounds like a perfect evening.
